IIII. *A Good calling may make one bold in danger. This is true of such as had the warrant of an extraordinary calling, and of such as have ordinary warrantable callings. aMoses by virtue of his special calling boldly opposed himself against Pharaoh, bNot fearing the wrath of the King. Joshua by virtue of his calling undertook a war against many mighty nations and kingdoms. So did many of the Judges. dDavid on this ground set upon a Bear at one time, and on a Lion at another, and slew them both. eA Priest by virtue of his calling readily and securely admitted lepers to come to him, viewed them, touched them, and went into houses infected with leprosy, to view where, or how far the leprosy had spread it self: yet was the leprosy infectious.
